"Thanks little guy for thinking of me
You're playing out in the snow I see
But I have to caution you little guy
Your legs are short and the snow is high
So stay alert, I beg you please
Don't go and let your tummy freeze !!"

An ICE EVENT 

January 1, 2022

​Another year has come and gone
And this old dude keeps hanging on
So I'll sit down and take the time
To start the new year with a rhyme
I will write about a friend of mine
He is not into cheese or wine
Like a log he is long and round
And his tummy almost drags the ground
He cannot see out of either eye
But he is an active little guy
There is one thing he does so well
The little fellow can really smell
With all the restrictions that blindness imposes
He finds the time to smell the roses
His hearing is acute as well as his smell
And many a mole has been sent to hell
I have found comfort in our relation
Fritz, my man,  you're a real inspiration
I will close with a message loud and clear
Everyone there have a HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

Brother Fritz demonstrates MASK WEARING!
Thanks BIG DAWG for clarifying this . . . 
July 31, 2021 
After this announcement, our friend, Gene, wrote this response:
"Thank you Fritz for your public service 
But the wearing of a mask always makes me nervous
Your explicit instructions are out of sight
If it's better that you do-- then do it right"

One of the hottest days of the year, a great time to spray herbicide.

"​​Great to hear from you Fritzie Boy
To me you are the Real McCoy
Makes no difference who may come around
You will always be my favorite hound!!  

A MERRY CHRISTMAS to you TOO!!
(p.s. Your lucky you can't see who they have you hanging around with! )
Your good friend -  Gene"

Yes, Papa had to get new tires for the tractor.  Not just any tire but military grade.
Who would have thought that would be such a problem????
Finally, found some online in Ohio,  then they were out of stock due to the pandemic, and finally, arrived about a month later. 
WHEW!

He must be listening to Jimmy Buffet - and probably thinking about a cheeseburger!
Yes, I was there too!  
​Too bad I hurried out and left my sunglasses at home!
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MY HALLOWEEN COSTUME?
